GeoTenerife also organises press launches in the UK for Tenerife businesses and public sector institutions wanting to get their message across to the world’s media.

Throughout the year we run press launches and exclusive, high-level investor briefings. If you would like more information, or would like to be considered for the guest list, please contact enquiries@geotenerife.com.

We launched the Tenerife government’s international call for investors in a tender for a new Circuit in the south of Tenerife. The event was held at the RAC Club in London. As a result, various bids were received and an Italian consortium won the concession to build the track, which is due for completion in 2018.

The government was concerned that the great support for motorsports and motorbike events on the island was so overwhelming, with ever-larger official and non-official events taking place in a number of locations year-round, that it was not sustainable for the future of the island. So they worked on a project for one official race circuit in the south of the island, opposite the south airport, to concentrate all the events in one purpose-built location and launched a tender process to call for investors.

We organised a press launch at the RAC Club in London at the beginning of December, and invited members of the broadcast, national and trade media to attend, as well as potential investors and members of the racing community.

We also invited local producers of our beloved Honey Rum and wine to send their products to the event, for presentation to the assembled audience.

The event generated a great deal of international press coverage, and resulted in a number of investors taking an interest in the tender process.
